It is not known whether the Flint Hills series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n^3\cdot\sin(n)^2}$ converges. We show that this question is closely related to the irrationality measure of $\pi$, denoted $\mu(\pi)$. In particular, convergence…

It is unknown whether the Flint-Hills series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^3\sin^2(n)}$ converges. Alekseyev (2011) connected this question to the irrationality measure of $\pi$, that $\mu(\pi) > \frac{5}{2}$ would imply divergence of the…

The special case of the hypergeometric function $_{2}F_{1}$ represents the binomial series $(1+x)^{\alpha}=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}(\:\alpha n\:)x^{n}$ that always converges when $|x|<1$. Convergence of the series at the endpoints, $x=\pm 1$,…

Pinning models are built from discrete renewal sequences by rewarding (or penalizing) the trajectories according to their number of renewal epochs up to time $N$, and $N$ is then sent to infinity. They are statistical mechanics models to…
